Now that there is so much discussion as to the rate at which doctors are to paid for their services under the in surance act, it Is interesting to read of ’he singular way in which Welsh mon archs used to pay their doctors. At the court of the Gwynedd kings the phy sician or surgeon ranked twelfth in or- ■ der of precedence among the household officials, and his fees were carefully de fined. For curing a flesh wound that was not dangerous the doctor was al lowed no other perquisite than such of the garments of the wounded person as rare stained with blood. But for cur ing any of what were called "the three iangerous wounds” he was granted a fee of $5 and his maintenance during lie cure, besides the blood-stained gar ments.

IV* r O- A Crochet Woolen Motor Cap Trimmed With Pheasant Feathers. “The Case of Oscar Slater” By Sir Arthur Conan Doyle I Sherlock Holmes in Real Life TODAY’S INSTALLMENT. There are at ill one or two singular points which Invite comment. One of these, which I have Incidentally men tioned, is that neither the matchbox, nor the box opened in the bed room, showed any marks of blood. Yet the crime had been an extraordinarily bloody one. This Is certainly very singular. AN EXPLANATION. An explanation given by Dr. Adams, who was the first medical man to view the body. Is worthy of attention. He considered that the wounds might have been inflicted by prods downward from the leg of a chair, in which case the seat of the chair would preserve the clothes, and, to some extent, the hands of tlie murderer from bloodstains. The con dition of one of the chairs seemed to him to favor this supposition. The explanation is Ingenious, but I must confess that I can not understand how such wounds could be inflicted by such an Instrument. There were in par ticular a number of spindle-shaped cuts, with a bridge of skin between them, which are very suggestive. My first choice as to the weapon which inflicted these would be a burglar’s jimmy, which Is bi furcated at one end. while the blow which pushed the poor woman's eye Into her brain would represent a thrust from the other end. Failing a jimmy. I should choose a ham mer. but a very different one from the toy thing from a half crow n card of tools which was exhibited in court. Surely, common sense would say that such an in strument could burst an eyeball, but could not possibly drive it deep into the brain, since the short head could not penetrate nearly so far The hammer which 1 would reconstruct from the injuries would he what they call, T believe, a plasterer's hammer, short tn the handle, long and strong in the head, with a broad fork behind. Hut how such a weapon could be used without the user bearing marks of It is more than I can say. It has never been explained why a rug was laid over the murdered woman. The murderer, os his conduct before Tann ine and Adams showed, was a perfectly cool person. It is at least possible that he used the rug as a shield between him and his victim while he battered her with his weapon. His clothes, if not his hands, would in this way be preserved. I have said that it Is of the first Im portance to trace who knew so the exist ence ot the jewels, since this might great ly help the solution of the problem. In connection with this there is a pas ’ saga in lasmbfe's evidence in New York I which is of some Importance. I give it | from the stenographer’s report, condens , iug in places: Q.

But I don’t know if be loves me. I was out with him ■ few times, and he took me hum. from a dance. Now, do you tbfnk he loves me? And, oh, I am Mu happy when in his comp.-inw Whenever we meet he always st* ni to talk to me. He is so dear to . 1 just can’t forget him. What <lihi I do to find out if ne reallv loves me? Oh, please help me. DOLLY DIMPLES He shows every- symptom, but y on must give such a serious ailment a . love time to develop. Don’t let him see that you would giv. your life for him. On the contrary let him see that you are not sure you would give more than an occasiona’ evening. Be a little more indifferent than the tone of your letter would in dicate. DON’T TELL HIM NOW. Dear Miss Fairfax: Some time ago I met a young man of whom I have grown very fond. He cares for me dearly and hopes to make me his wife some day. He works both day and night, as he supports his mother and is trying to gather something for the future. Last week I gave him an invita tion to a party. I also asked him to f;o with me (as he would not go alone, being a stranger). He gav* me bis reason why he could not g" which I know was the truth, as his mother will not allow him to go tilth a Gentile girl. The next time we met he asked me who I went with, and he seemed to be disap pointed when I told him. The verv eame day be tried to put him arms about me before other boys (whom we both know very well), to which I objected. He grew»very angry and said if I really cared for him I would not mind him doing such a little thing before anyone, not alone close friends. I have never told him I cared for him. A BROKEN-HEARTED GIRL Marriage yvith him seems hop .es« for two reasons. It will be a king time j before he earns enough to support a wife, and the difference in religion does not promise happiness. He shows a proprietary' air toward you when no engagement exists. He is selfish. Try to forget him, my dear. If his mother rill not let him take you to a party', cj you realize how much more serious her objections will bo when he takes you for a wife?
